Ever since the first reports of the future iPhone 15 started coming in, it became pretty clear that Apple intends to further increase the gap between the “basic” models (it’s weird to use the term basic to refer to an iPhone, but you know what I mean) and the Pro and Pro Ultra versions (which is the current generation Pro Max). The last thing we heard about it is that its frames could become the smallest on the market, and I’m sure there will be more leaks in this regard in recent months.

It’s also true that some of the news that was expected for the iPhone 15 Pro looks like it won’t arrive in the end. Specifically, I’m referring to the much touted buttonless design, bold in terms of interface design and user experience. But let’s remember that Similar concerns were raised when Apple removed the Home button on the iPhone X, something that seemed too risky, but over the years it has become a standard not only for Apple, but for the smartphone market in general. However, as I said, a design issue seems to have forced this change to be postponed to a future generation.

Logically, it makes sense to clearly distinguish between the normal and Pro models, although in this distinction Apple also has to act with some measure. Recall that all iPhone models are clearly high-end, so Apple must improve the Pro, yes, but not at the price of iPhone and iPhone Plus reductionsbecause it’s something that would most likely sit very poorly with users of the same… and for good reason.

According to what we can read in MacRumors, The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will share the main camera with the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Ultra. But before we break it down in detail, it is important to clarify that we are not talking about the set of cameras that make up the main camera, but the main sensor of both. As you know, the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus have a camera composed of two elements, a main 12-megapixel main and an ultra-wide-angle one with the same resolution. The 14 Pro has a much more advanced imaging system, the main feature of which is a 48-megapixel camera.

Well, according to a report cited in the said publication, lThe iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will make the leap to mounting a new version of said camerawhich would be integrated into its main camera and at the same time it is a new version that will also be used to update the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Ultra, so the main element of the image capture of the four models in the family It will be the same, at least in the next generation.

However, the same report talks about some production issuesso we’ll still have to wait and see if this is confirmed and if it affects the presentation and launch date, or if Apple decides to go back and re-build the lower quality sensor in the 15 and 15 Max.
